Read now!!!

Most people will pick up a book and read it when they bored, off to the can or used as a distraction while traveling. There are some that really make reading an art or at least a dedicated hobby. They will have a special spot in the home, on the front porch or in the backyard. There will often be a special beverage and perhaps a special treat that goes along with the activity. These dedicated readers will make the time to read and just squeeze it in when they can. The families of these special breed of people know not to bother them unless it is a critical emergency.

The selection of the book can occur in many ways. It could be the most popular book that everyone is reading for the month or it could be a book recommended by a friend. Often the dedicated reader will have a growing list, so there will never be a time when the reader is without a book. After the book, there are other intricacies that come into play when reading a book. There is the perfect light at the perfect wattage and the perfect angle, so that there is no glare on the pages. There is the perfect chair, one important piece of furniture that is so comfortable that one can lose themselves in it. And some might insist on a particular outfit while reading, such as a comfy robe or the perfectly soft pair of sweatpants.

There are other accessories that could be included by the ones listed are the absolute necessities. It may be a personal choice as to the instruments but the intensity and devotion are all the same.

Reading Matters

Have you ever thougt how many millions of people in the world every day open any printed material and read it. Some of them read the first page of the newspaper, others at least romantic storyand the third ones read the whole novel. And it is not important why they read. We think that there are different reasons for reading. For example reading helps to relax, to distract from daily routine, to learn something new, to know the latest news. Sometimes people read just for fun. Readers are taking books from the libraries, buying them in the book shops, downloading them from the internet and sometimes even borrow the books from friends. By the way some scientists believe that reading aloud can even affect somehow on the plants growth.
But of course not everyone likes reading. There are men and women who like to spend their free time by watching TV. They find it much more interesting and less time consuming.
In the future, we hope that people will read more and more fiction, and at least one member of a family will know who Leo Tolstoy, William Shakespeare and Oscar Wild are.

Memoirs

When people become old, they begin to reconsider their life and analyze their actions and deeds. Usually the result of these thoughts and reminiscences is writing memoirs. Memoirs of famous people are published and very quickly gain great popularity. They become very popular because they are a wonderful opportunity to learn unknown facts from history and life of a person, who writes them. We live and try to understand the world around us; we try to explain the events, which happen in social sphere, politics and economy. However, despite all democratic achievements, we still feel lack of information and understand that many facts of behind-the-scenes policy are hidden form public. However, we learn these facts with the lapse of time, when the main participants of political games become old and kind and they have no reasons any more to hide their secrets.
Memoirs are very a good material for learning history. It is much easier to remember the plot of an essay, that a dull and bare paragraph from a history textbook. People, who write memoirs, are living history and their life stories are very valuable for coming generations. By means of these life stories we learn the past and at the same time learn to build our future. When you read them you plunge into this atmosphere and experience all events described there as if you are a participant of those events. If like reading, don’t forget to read memoirs. Remember, that once you will be old and maybe you will write memoirs yourself. That is why read them and learn to write them yourself.

Reading and life

I am sure there are many people, for whom it is interesting to read articles about reading. I think that reading and everything connected with it is still attractive for many people, not only elderly and middle-aged ones, but also for youngsters. Articles about reading consist not only in discussing different books, novels, stories, etc. They also consider reading as an occupation, a hobby, position of reading in our modern world of new technologies and innovations. Reading is one of the oldest occupations of the world. Different people have different views on the question about reading. While some think that it is obsolete, others argue that it is still popular nowadays and will be in future. Elderly people and some middle-aged ones still think that a person can’t do without reading. I wonder if representatives of young generation support this point of view or they disagree and think that reading is an old-fashioned and out-of-date business. If younger people read my articles, than things are not so bad as some people think. Influence of reading on people is magnificent. Unfortunately, this fact is underestimated by many people. However, its impact is comparable to other types of entertainment and in some cases it even exceeds them. The problem of free time is topical today and it often amends people’s occupations on weekends. People who are fond of reading are likely to spend all their free time with an interesting book. Others are likely to prefer some other leisure activities. Generalized psychological portrait of a person, who constantly reads something is a very interesting issue. Are they bores or this is simply a stereotype? It depends on a person and the reasons why he/she has become an active reader. Don’t confuse active readers with bookworms.

Favorite books

Many people have their favorite books. However, the amount of people, who have read at least one book in their life, decreases exponentially. Many people don’t like to read at all. This mostly refers to younger generations and children. There are also many people, who have read one book. For them it is not a difficult task to determine which book is their favorite one. I think you guess why. Fortunately, there are also people, who still read a lot, though this occupation is not very popular nowadays. I read a lot too. Once I thought what book was my favorite one and couldn’t choose, as there were many of them. Later on I left this useless business and now I don’t try to single out a book to my favorite one.
I don’t understand people, who have chosen one book to be their favorite one. There are so many interesting, exciting, amusing and wonderful books in the world! Is it really possible to single out one of them? I think that this is impossible. Besides, all interesting books differ from each other so much, that it is impossible to compare them. For example, how can one compare a historical novel and science fiction and determine which novel is the best one. This is strange and I think that those readers, who do have their favorite book, limit themselves consciously. They are obsessed with one book and it is very bad. It refers also to other spheres of life. It is harmful for any person to be obsessed with one thing and overlook the world around you.

Magazines

Many people, especially middle-aged and elderly ones still think that only by means of reading a person can develop his/her mind comprehensively. They don’t define completely what they mean by reading. I think that they mean not simply reading as a process, but certain staff for reading, such as novels, poems and stories. They are sure that classic literature has the most powerful educative impact on the young generation. However, youngsters are reluctant to read this sort of literature. They find it boring and incomprehensive. The matter is that nowadays young people have ideals and life goals which differentiate greatly from those of that novels and stories. Maybe twenty years ago, representatives of young generation of that time understood the ideas, hidden in classics, but at present young people don’t even understand the message of this or that story or a novel. That is why they mostly hate literature lessons at school. Once people thought that ideas and ideals laid in these masterpieces of world literature were eternal and would last forever. They were mistaken, as we can judge now by the present-day situation. Life shows that nothing is eternal. Young people are still fond of reading, but they read mostly youth magazines and something from the Internet. They read only those articles and stories, which correspond to their inner world and bring them pleasure and amusement. As for me, I don’t like the most of magazines and journals, published for young people. Life is too short to spend your time for reading something unnecessary and useless.

Reading and imagination

Again the topic of reading worries me much. Unfortunately, people read not very much and that is why the majority of them are uninteresting interlocutors. Well, of course, people may also discuss movies, but constant watching them spoils your imagination. You lose skills to imagine things. You need to see everything with your own eyes. If you read a lot, you have an ability to listen to a rendering of a story attentively and it isn’t really boring for you. When you read books, you imagine the events, people, things and so on. These skills can be applied to the conversation as well. Those people, who watch movies only, usually don’t like to listen to the plot of a movie but prefer to watch it themselves. Of course, you may say, that it is always better to see everything with your own eyes and it refers not only to movies but also to all events which may occur, but I want to say that if you don’t read books, you become unable to dream. This is very serious, as it is very difficult to live in this world without this wonderful ability to dream. Our life is sometimes boring and monotonous and it is natural for a person to wish something unusual and extraordinary. It is so very understandable that it is impossible to get everything we want at once. What shall we do then? The answer is very simple: to dream! Everything, which is unavailable now and here can be reached in our dreams. As you see, reading is vital for our well-being and psychological health. Read books, mainly novels, love stories and fiction, develop your imaginations and dream about better life! This is my piece of advice to you, I have experienced it myself and am sure that you will appreciate it when you read more!

NICE)

Reading is very important in human life. Each person spends at least several hours for reading a week. Though, of course, we must admit, that in case with younger generation this amount of hours is much less in comparison with grown-ups. Besides, the stuff older people, middle-aged ones and youngsters read differs greatly. Our grandfathers and grandmothers prefer to read serious newspapers, where they can find everything they need: politics, culture, arts as well as gossips, rumors and other low-grade information, if we can call this information. Elderly people still want to find out something new and some facts to ponder about. As for middle-aged people, they are more practical. They usually read something to get information which could prompt them how to plan their future and how to spend their time. They are not inclined to read something unnecessary and unimportant. Though, of course we can come across middle-aged persons, who like to read low-brow press. They are mainly housewives and those, who have an opportunity to sit at home and do nothing. Youngsters prefer youth magazines. There they can find a lot of interesting facts about celebrities, their lives and the way they usually spend their free time. Young people also like to read about dating, tips how to get acquainted in different places and situations, etc. Their parents often complain that their children read a little and are very glad when they see their offspring reading these magazines. They think that it is better for their children to read something than loiter their time away. However, when they look through the staff written there they change their mind and sometimes they even think that it is better to be illiterate than to read such stupid things. This is one of the manifestations of generation gap. It is very difficult for different generations to get along with each other. It is so very understandable, because these generations are polarities.
